Dear Consultant:
The next phase in the consolidation of the various mutual funds under the PIMCO
banner will take place over the next several months. The proposed resulting
structure will consist of two (down from three) trusts - one for equity funds
and one for fixed income funds - each with A, B, and C class shares for retail
investors, and institutional and administrative class shares for institutional
investors.
This structure mirrors the form used by many fund complexes and should help
solidify the PIMCO name in mutual fund circles. The four institutional funds
currently managed by Cadence (Capital Appreciation, Mid Cap Growth, Small Cap
Growth, and Micro Cap Growth) are already part of the equity trust and all
current shareholders will continue to own the same institutional class of shares
in the new structure.
It is important to emphasize that for Cadence institutional fund clients this
consolidation will result in no change in investment philosophy and process, no
change in aggregate costs, and no change in client servicing standards (Cadence
will handle directly).
On an ongoing basis, marketing and servicing of the A,B, and C classes will be
totally the responsibility of PIMCO Advisors Distribution Company, not Cadence
Capital. Cadence will continue to service and support our institutional fund
clients just as we have in the past, and manage the assets just as we have in
the past.
We look forward to continuing our relationship in the future. In the meantime,
if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to call.
Sincerely,
